DIY Coffee Cup Rack

A cup of coffee at 7pm is not an entirely wise idea. You could argue though that it sometimes leads to fun things, like this DIY Coffee Cup Rack! That was the case the other night, an evening coffee lead me to being wide awake and ready to build something at 9pm. What better item to build than a coffee cup rack? This project was very simple and I was able to use some wood that I already had on hand. No special trips to the hardware store for anything. The one I made measures 14" across by 30" long. You can definitely adjust the measurements to make it la[...]

We have some of the most amazing sunsets on the prairies and it, combined with the vibrant hues on the leaves is pretty breathtaking. The only thing I dislike about Fall is that winter follows way too quickly! Once September hits and the kids are back in school I'm able to find the time to infuse some of that fall feeling into our décor. Fall décor doesn't have to boast bold & vivid hues, a neutral palette can make[...]
